Chapter 208 To help her get revenge
That time, Lu Junyan's car accident was not because of her.
However, this time...
Jiang Ning bit her lower lip, her brows furrowed deeply.
"Jiang Ning, Junyan has woken up, and he wants to see you."
When Jiang Ning heard Lu Yexiong lean out of the ward and say this, he immediately stood up.
However, when she entered the ward, everyone else had already left.
As Jiang Ning brushed past Chu Qingxue, she clearly saw Chu Qingxue glare at her fiercely.
At this moment, only Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan remained in the ward, which was even quieter than the corridor.
Jiang Ning looked at Lu Junyan, who was lying weakly on the hospital bed, and was about to thank him when Lu Junyan said calmly:
"Thank you."
Jiang Ning was stunned.
Why is it Lu Junyan who is thanking her?
It was clearly Lu Junyan who took the knife for her; she should be the one thanking Lu Junyan.
However, Lu Junyan's gaze was very sincere when he thanked her, which made Jiang Ning even more puzzled.
"No, you saved my life, I should be thanking you."
Jiang Ning said solemnly.
Regardless of why Lu Junyan took that knife for her, the result was that Lu Junyan was seriously injured, while she was unharmed.
Both out of courtesy and reason, Jiang Ning must express his gratitude.
"No, I'm the one who has a grudge against that person..."
Lu Junyan's words surprised Jiang Ning.
"That person was a senior executive at Xinyue Real Estate who was laid off."
Lu Junyan's words were brief and to the point, but Jiang Ning was completely confused.
Xinyue Real Estate...
If she remembered correctly, it was Fu Xinyue's family business.
If the other party hates capitalists because they were laid off, then shouldn't they hate the Fu family?
Why does Lu Junyan think the other party has a grudge against him?
Jiang Ning opened his mouth, but the question remained unspoken.
Things related to Lu Junyan...
She doesn't need to care.
"I just drove you to the hospital; it was the doctor who saved your life."
Jiang Ning emphasized.
"Yes, that's what I think too..."
once.
Jiang Ning was baffled by Lu Junyan's words.
Since Lu Junyan thought the same way, why did he thank her right away?
Jiang Ning tilted his head.
Since her divorce from Lu Junyan, she has found Lu Junyan's words and actions increasingly unpredictable.
Lu Junyan's words of thanks just now were for this occasion, as well as for the one many years ago.
He was in a car accident because Chu Qingxue went to the United States.
He later learned that Jiang Ning had carried him all the way to the hospital.
But when Jiang Ning entered the ward, he didn't even say thank you.
Because it was the doctor who saved his life.
At least that's what he thought at the time.
He simply asked Jiang Ning how much he wanted.
He's rich, and since Jiang Ning took him to the hospital, he won't shortchange him on any reward he's owed.
Looking back now, Lu Junyan realized...
It turns out that Jiang Ning saved him many times.
For the first time, Lu Junyan felt a warm sensation in his chest.
The ward fell silent once again.
Jiang Ning felt that he didn't need to stay any longer.
"Then I won't disturb your rest."
She turned to leave.
"I don't want to rest."
Jiang Ning turned her head and met Lu Junyan's gaze.
She wanted to tell him, "Then do as you please," but Lu Junyan spoke first:
Tell me a joke!
Jiang Ning: ? ? ? ? ?
She remembered the doctor saying that Lu Junyan had suffered a stab wound to the abdomen and was bleeding heavily, rather than a brain injury, right?
"The doctor said you should get more sleep."
“Then sing me a lullaby.”
"I think I should find you a neurosurgeon."
"Why?"
Lu Junyan's question was so serious that Jiang Ning didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
In the end, out of consideration for Lu Junyan taking the knife for her, Jiang Ning sat by the hospital bed and played a lullaby for Lu Junyan on her phone.
The soothing music made the atmosphere in the ward much warmer.
"I was hospitalized before because of stomach pain..."
Lu Junyan's voice, accompanied by a lullaby, didn't sound as cold as usual.
"Yuan Pei said he told you, but you didn't come to see me..."
Jiang Ning hummed in agreement.
Even without Yuan Pei saying it, she already knew that Lu Junyan was hospitalized due to stomach pain.
"Why?"
Lu Junyan's question made Jiang Ning frown.
"Because we are already divorced."
This resolute answer was like a knife, drawing a line between Jiang Ning and Lu Junyan.
"What if..."
Lu Junyan only said half of what he wanted to say.
Jiang Ning turned her head and saw that Lu Junyan had his eyes closed, as if he were asleep.
She stood up and left the ward.
Lu Junyan never lacks companions; for example, right now, as soon as she came out, Chu Qingxue immediately slipped inside.
Jiang Ning thought Yuan Pei would go in as well, since Yuan Pei was Lu Junyan's best friend. However, Yuan Pei enthusiastically approached her and tried to chat with her for a few minutes, even though there was nothing to say.
Jiang Ning guessed that Yuan Pei probably didn't want to disturb Chu Qingxue and Lu Junyan's time together.
She also happened to have something she wanted to ask Yuan Pei, so the two of them walked around outside the hospital building for a while.
According to Yuan Pei, Xinyue Real Estate's stock has recently plummeted, its assets have evaporated, and it is under investigation by the procuratorate. All of Fu's related companies are in dire straits.
In order to reduce its debt, Xinyue Real Estate laid off a large number of employees, affecting many people.
Everyone in the industry knows that the reason why Xinyue Real Estate suddenly faced so many crises was because of Lu Junyan.
"The guy who stabbed Brother Lu is said to be the general affairs manager of Xinyue Real Estate. He was laid off, his wife divorced him, and he didn't get custody of his son. He's middle-aged but still single, and apparently he has a lot of gambling debts... So it's understandable that he hates Brother Lu!"
The more Jiang Ning listened, the more uneasy he looked.
Why did Lu Junyan suddenly target Xinyue Real Estate?
The Lu family and the Fu family were originally supposed to keep to themselves and not interfere with each other.
Suddenly, Jiang Ning remembered what Lu Junyan had told her: that her hands had almost been ruined by thugs before, and it was Fu Xinyue who was behind it.
Could it be...?
Jiang Ning's eyes widened.
"No, it's impossible..."
Seeing Jiang Ning shake his head, Yuan Pei couldn't help but retort: "How is it impossible! A cornered dog will do anything. That person is a gambler, and when pushed to the brink, he'll do anything."
Jiang Ning listened to Yuan Pei's words, but his mind was in complete turmoil.
Surely Lu Junyan wouldn't have started Xinyue Real Estate just to help her get revenge?
Jiang Ning smiled wryly, realizing that he had fallen back into his old habit of being delusional.
Although Lu Junyan said that the person had a grudge against him.
According to the information provided by Yuan Pei, Lu Junyan can indeed be considered the other party's enemy.
However, when Jiang Ning recalled it, she still believed that the person who wanted to stab her that night was her, not Lu Junyan.
If that person truly targeted Lu Junyan, then after stabbing Lu Junyan, they shouldn't have panicked and fled, but rather gloated, feeling that they had avenged their great grudge.
Jiang Ning sighed, just then his phone rang.
In the evening, Xinyue Real Estate.
Fu Xinyue was extremely busy when suddenly the office door was pushed open.
